Some service providers used by Elevra Research may process or store information outside your state, province, country, or other jurisdiction of residence.

When personal information is processed in another jurisdiction, it may be subject to the laws of that jurisdiction and may be accessible to courts, law-enforcement authorities, regulators, or government agencies where legally permitted.

Elevra Research takes reasonable steps to select reputable service providers and to require appropriate handling and protection of personal information.

Safeguards may include secure website connections, restricted administrative access, account authentication, software updates, security monitoring, backups, fraud screening, and access controls.

No website, electronic transmission, payment method, or digital storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure. Customers are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of their login credentials and for notifying Elevra Research of suspected unauthorized account activity.

11. Data Retention

Elevra Research retains personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary to provide services, complete transactions, maintain business records, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, prevent fraud, enforce agreements, and support legitimate operational requirements.

Retention periods may vary according to the type of information, transaction history, payment requirements, tax and accounting obligations, security considerations, and applicable laws.
